In the midst of a warm streak (winners of five out of six games) the Mets get rained out in their series finale with St. Louis. So its on to Philadelphia for four games in three days. A big series? Yesiree!
I talk alot about the state of the offense, going through the lineup and addressing the issues. I think we need to trade for an outfielder. What do you think? Vote here.
Plus injury updates and a comment from Greg In CT.
The Mets have been in a real tough stretch, losing seven of the past nine games. The last two losses this weekend against Detroit were real tough because our pitching finally collapsed while the bats came alive.
We’ve been hurt by a variety of injuries but we still have some important core players like Jose Reyes, David Wright, Carlos Delgado and Carlos Beltran. Shawn Green is expected to return very soon. Moises Alou could be back in a week or so.
Interesting schedule coming up with Los Angeles and the (surging?) Yankees over the next week.
Trade talk will heat up as the month of July approaches. Who would you trade for?
